agreed with master cloudwan, i wont go for MSI GD65 as well, ASUS M5A97 PRO/EVO would be a better choice, at least for me.

i agree with master cloudwan also. ony certain HyperX T1 is good. others sux
i would go for gskill or ballistix

i thought master khoo want to suggest GD80.. my bad then.. indeed EVO is a good OC mobo for budget.

dah dah... me no master ok... me mister oni...

budget wise 970 evo/pro should be cheaper ma. if budget not a concern can consider GD80/990X EVO.

i thought if budget is not an issue, should go with Asus ROG board. Or this board is over sell?

ROG is on another level bro... not much usin such premium board like master cloudwan & sifu sarahlah...

Yeah right, said the guy that gone through mobo's from CHV to sabertooth to GD80 etc.. changing em like changing panties.. lol

Any chance someone here play with new amd proc? FX9000? Huhu

That is a hard cpu to get, mostly OEM supply only..

i heard its not going to be on retail. not really sure though. just asking, who know someone here manage to get that chip. quite bored lately, want to play new hardware, but dont know when steamroller is going out. anybody want to let go their bulldozer, sell it to me cheap2

Lol... those were testing units only leh...

sellin @ USD9xx (iirc), who would dare to buy?

it's on retail, some big online stores carry it. doesn't come with stock cooler.

mobo m5a99x r2.0

hello there, I'm planning to build a rig but thinking whether want to grab 6300 or 6350 , on tight budget.

most probably choose ASRock 970 Extreme3 R2.0 as mobo, what are the diff between 6300 and 6350 ? can just take 6300 and OC to the clock speed of 6350 ? will it provide the same performance?

Here's a comparison between them..

http://cpuboss.com/cpus/AMD-FX-6350-vs-AMD-FX-6300

Yup technically yes u can oc the FX6300 to FX6350 speed, it shouldnt be a problem.. but at the same time the FX6350 do however has a better oc milage iianm..

better oc mileage (ram, cpu-nb & cpu), less volt needed, better power consumption. if ur not super bad luck (in gettin a lemon chip), pile driver >>> bulldozer anytime...

6350 with MSI 970A-G43
good go ?
if budget is limited, is value ram okay for the build?
didn't plan to get GC that soon, might use my old 9800GT .
how many watt PSU I should get?
am I asking too much? Hahaha
Thanks in advance anyway !

as much as i love msi, i'd still go for ASUS for AMD at least. have u checked d price of ASUS 970 series?

as for PSU go for more established brand if possible. if ur not gettin super high end GC 520~620watter should be more than enough. PSU & mobo are 2 important component for stable setup so i wont mind spending a 'lil more even if budget is tight. ram u can opt for any value ram... if u have d time to go hunt shop by shop mebe can target kingston kvr... if luck is with u mebe u can grab a pair with hynix chipset?

Asus 970 is 3xx , another 100+ extra for the mobo .
hynix chipset? what's that? how to differentiate the chipset ?
shop hunt ? lowyat?
the price of mobo , processor on LYN is much cheaper than the price list in lowyat. where should I get the product.

There are a few reputable sellers that you can buy from like zhenwei or APES.my

but hows their price?
my budget is quite limited..
well.. regarding that desktop , see how I perform on this semester first
If able to do well then I will get it as reward for myself.

most probably change to FX8320 instead of 6350.

thanks for your info ya.

Zhenwei's shop is Ideal Tech.

Either way, Ideal Tech or APES and you can't go wrong. Besides them, there are other reputable sellers around town too.

It really depends on which location you're at. If you're not in Klang Valley then I believe all of them also do postage.
